The college or concerned department conducts the intemal assessment during the session and the University conducts the external assessment (Final Examination) at the end of each semester, Final practical examination shall be conducted by the college or the concemed department and the universit will send the external examiner Tach course shall have internal evaluation marks of 40% evaluated by the concerned faculty member. Generally. each course will have a written end semester examination (Final Examination) of 60% marks at the end of each semester. The internal marks shall be awarded on the basis of constant assessment, Normally, final examinations are not conducted for elective courses and in courses which are offered as intensive courses conducted by reputed international scholars, The mark weightage and time allocated for ifferent assessment is given below.

Fach course is assigned a certain number of credits depending generally upon its lecture, tutorial and practical work hours in a week. In theory subjects, one lecture per week is assigned one credit as @ general rule, Grading Svstem a ‘The grade (marks) awarded to a student in-aGourse is based on,his‘her consolidated performance in sessional and. final examinations. The letter grade in any particular ue NP mensubject is an indication of a student's relative performance in that course. The pattern of sgreding is as follows: Letter | Grade | Grade Point Description D .0 Work satisiying minimum requizement for credits Failing Only in Very rare and unusual circumstances, if a student cannot finish all the required work for the course, he/she may be awarded an incomplete grade "I", If all the required ‘work is not completed within the following semester, the grade of T will automatically be converted to an "F". A student receiving an “I” grade does not need to register for that subject in the following semester to complete the required works, The performance ofa student in a semester shall be evaluated in terms of the Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA) which is the grade point average for the semester. ‘The cumulative grade point average (CGPA) is the grade point average for all completed semesters, sGPa semester CGPA = Toial honor points eamed / Total number of eredits completed fotal honor points earned in a semester / Total number of credits registered in a Alicudanee Requirement The students must attend every lecture, tutorial and practical classes, However, to accommodate for sickness and other contingencies, the attendance requirement shall be a minimum of 80% of the classes actually held. If a student fails to attend 80% of the classes in any particular subject, he/she shall not be allowed to take the final examination in that subject. 2 Normal and Maximum Duration of Stay at the College The normal duration for completing the Bachelor of Arts in Computer Application (BCA) program at the university will be four years, The maximum duration for the ‘completion of the requirements will be the normal duration plus two year. Course Registration . The academic record of a studatt is maintained registers in any semester, and the grades he/she rms of the courses for whith he/she tains in those courses. Registfation forcourses is done at the beginning of each semester. Since registration is a very important procedural part of the credit system, it is absolutely essential that all students present themselves at the college, In case of illness or any exceptional circumstance during the registration period, he/she must inform the Principal of the same, Registration in absentia may be allowed only in rare cases, at the discretion of the Principal. However, the student's nominee cannot register for courses buit will only be allowed to complete other formalities. Repeating a Course A course may be taken only once for a grade, except when a student receives a D or F grade. Since passing of all core courses individually is a degree requirement, the student ‘must retake the failing core course when offered and must suecessfully complete the course. Retaking a course in which a student has earned a D grade is optional. However, ‘student cannot retake more than two courses in which he/she has received D grade. The grade earned on the retake will substitute the grade earned first time the course was taken Elective Courses The curriculum is oriented to have intensive study in the field of interest with course registration flexibility at least for four courses, But in future, course registration flexibility shall be increased to more number of courses, Award of Degree ‘Tribhuvan University awards Bachelor of Arts in Computer Application (BCA) degree upon completion of all requirements as preseribed in the curriculum, Tribhuvan University awards grades as explained in the curriculum on the basis of individual students relative performance, The minimum credit hours needed for Bachelor of Arts in Computer Application (BCA) degree is 126. Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) for the degree shall be awarded upon completion of all requirements. Examination Paper ‘Students may apply for re-totaling or sechecking of their grades as per University rule, upon payment of prescribed fee.
